Up for your viewing pleasure possible fake...
I personally don't like the suspension and uneven patine. Any thoughts ? |

Here is a Medal for Distinguished Labour, type 1 being offered. I think it as best a later version on a fake suspension although the seller garantees that it is genuine. In a further post is a Valiant labour type 1, notice that the star isn't touching the top rim a sure sign of a converted later version. The seller also garantees that that medal is genuine.
Alexei please excuse the Distinguished Labour photo in the Valiant thread. As they are from the same person i thought i would be nice to compare the two together. Eddie

Here is the Valiant labour Medal i mentioned in the previous post clearly showing the space between the star and the rim.

Yes, indeed Eddie that are fakes.
A lot of faked triangle suspensions for the two labour medals and the old foursquare suspension for the military merit and valour medal are flooding e-... . And some people specialise to sell military merit and valour medal in the 500 thousand range with faked foursquare suspension :banghead And the worst thing is, there are enough bidder. Today one was sold for around 75 USD. :angerr regards Andreas |

Hi Andreas,
Yes seems things are going from bad to worse, I'm just going to post an Uschakov Medal from the same seller, also with his authentic garantee :angerr Chances are you have seen all three of these Medals too. Eddie.

Distinguished Labor Medal - T2V1...
What do you guys think of this one? I like it, but I really don't see many of these. It's in well-used condition having seen better days, and a bit on the thin side.

Re: Fake Medals for Valiant and Distinguished Labor
Ciao!
I have this Distinguished Labor since some time. I think it is type 2, variant 4 subvariant 2. Is it alright? Any idea how old this medal could be? Thank you. |
